Italian authorities are investigating the Vatican Bank over possible violations of money laundering regulations, the Bank of Italy told CNN Tuesday.
The Vatican said Tuesday it is "perplexed and baffled" by the public prosecutor's actions, and the Holy See aims for "complete transparency" in its financial operations.

Last month they were "perplexed and baffled" that the authorities were investigating a priest child molester in either Belgium or Holland as I recall. Heaven forbid that the police follow leads and evidence when it leads to the holier than thou crowd.
